San Francisco United Methodist Mission
We have contacted the San Francisco United Mission about assistance and support for women abused by UMC clergy. We are not surprised that they have not responded. We have contacted several UMC clergy regarding clergy misconduct. We described the type of abuse that we know of, that was perpetrated on the victim. One courageous clergy did respond, recommending that we contact the State Attorney's Office. We, however would like to see the United Methodist Church taking responsibility for their clergy and exposing these clergy men who abuse women. We hope that they would do right by the victims abused by clergy, even those women who are not United Methodist. We seek justice for these women. We would like to see the United Methodist Church revoke the orders of the clergy guilty of sexual misconduct. With their orders revoked, the clergy cannot abuse their power and would not be able to abuse other women likewise. If any of you know of any women who have been abused by the United Methodist Clergy and they are afraid to come forward, please direct them to our blog. Remember you are not alone.
